Camera Critters 60, Evie is growing up

April 10, two days old. First time out and staying very close to mommy.

May 12, growing up fast.

And when you are part of the Brinkbeest-household, you get to meet all sorts of critters.

Meeting Holle, one of our labradors, for the first time.

No, this is not one of the other labradors. This is Nufnuf, one of our pigs.

Our other horse Willem, having a little talk with Tumtum, our other pig. Willem used to be REALLY scared of the pigs. He wouldn't even come near us if we had just touched a pig. The smell made him tremble. But Tumtum is a patient and very friendly pig who likes horses. So now Willem is pigproof.

Camera Critters is a fun meme, hosted by Misty Dawn. Check out the other entries here!

    You can really see how much she's grown! And she looks absolutely gorgeous, as do your other animals. And I love the names of your pigs. Somehow they remind me of sweets...

    "... so now Willem is pigproof"

    LOL! Not many people can say that about their horses!

    Yours must be the most socialised horses around. If only everyone would take the same trouble with their horses - and dogs too!

    T,
    the pigs are such sweeties, we love them too.

    Jay,
    I'm told that all horses truly dislike pigs. It's really sweet to see them 'talk' to each other. First time Willem saw the pigs he was upset for a week. I'm not kidding.

    Pam,
    but you'll have to promise not to eat them ;-) You must have a delicious recipe for roasted pig somewhere.

    Jewels,
    hehe, it does sound like a children's book. He doesn't have that many adventures though. He sleeps and eats. And that's about it. Apart from the occasional conversation with the horses ;-)
